CCI Ammunition has now begun to ship its Uppercut defensive rimfire ammunition chambered for .22 WMR. These days, the viability of using a .22 caliber rimfire firearm for self-defense is gaining more acceptance. The firearms industry is also responding in kind by selling more defensive-oriented firearms in these rimfire chamberings. To meet this new crop of interest, CCI originally launched the Uppercut product line to offer its customers a defensive .22LR round. The availability of Uppercut ammunition in .22 WMR alongside the original .22 LR load helps make pistols and rifles chambered in .22 WMR a more viable option for self-defense, personal protection around the home and everyday carry.

CCI loads the .22 WMR Uppercut cartridge with a 40-grain copper plated hollow point bullet that features prominent skiving around the bullet to promote thorough expansion upon target impact. In that same vein, CCI Uppercut ammunition is loaded in nickel cases for maximum reliability and fidelity in defensive firearms.

“CCI Uppercut answers the call for self-defense with power and precision, and our new 22 WMR load delivers peak performance across all platforms,” said Steve Monniere, CCI’s Rimfire Product Line Manager. “Uppercut is CCI’s first-ever rimfire product line designed for defense and will undoubtedly be some of our most popular loads.”
